In today’s podcast, goalkeeper Diogo Costa saved three consecutive penalties as Portugal narrowly beat Slovenia with just one penalty. Cristiano Ronaldo had chances to win in extra time, as did Slovenia’s Benjamin Cesko, but both were denied.

Meanwhile, France vs Belgium somehow ended up going even worse than England vs Slovakia, with a late deflected goal ensuring France’s place in the quarter finals.

We’ll also look ahead to the Romania vs Netherlands and Austria vs Turkey matches, say a little bit about England, and answer your questions.
